There have been various argument about the $2.1 bill
scandal. While some people believe it is the right step in the right direction,
others are of the opinion that the present government is just wasting so much
time and energy in the probe. Well, I would like to break it out mathematically
so that we can see how much we need to complete fight.
From all indications, various sections of the media is of
the opinion that col. Sambo dasuki misappropriated a whooping sum of #400bill.
But so far the amount of money that has been traced to different account does
not even add up to #10bill. What does that mean? It means that it took the
federal government about 5 months to discover the whereabouts of #10bill while
we have another #390bill which has not been accounted for. There are 39 #10bill
yet to go, meaning it might take another 195 months approximately 16 years
three months to completely find the whereabouts of the remaining sum.
With all these figures, what can I conclude? Maybe nothing or
maybe I just like playing with figures. But I ask you a very salient question.
Is it worth the time and energy? Or is it another ploy to distract the citizens
from the present hardship? I don’t know what to say. But I know one thing…16
years is a long time. You be the judge.
